Artist Sails Down River Thames in Paper Boat

Nov 7, 2010 1 comments

German artist Frank Bolter sailed down the Thames in a giant paper boat, as part of the Drift 10 art exhibition in London. The origami vessel, entitled To The World's End, was folded on the banks of Canary Wharf in east London before being lowered into the water with the help of passing members of the public. To make sure the boat didn’t crumble under the weight of the artists, it was reinforced with metal poles.

The Drift10 biennial art exhibition runs until January.
